Tina explained that part of the reason for the move is a desire for features like classrooms and outdoor space that aren\u2019t possible in the museum\u2019s current lakefront location. Looking to remain in the City of Milwaukee, she said the relocation will be a multi-year process and that the museum is exploring funding from multiple sources, with no federal support in the mix at this time.<\/p>\n<p>When Jeff asked his 2026 governor\u2019s race question, Tina offered this stump speech for candidates: \u201cA great state is where every child, no matter their ZIP code, has access to a joyful, high quality learning experience. We truly believe that our kids deserve better and should be the priority in many decisions that are being made.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Later, on this month\u2019s edition of The Future of Almost Everything, Jeff brought in Martin Moore from Koss to talk about the new and surprisingly affordable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/macbook-neo\/?afid=p240%7Cgo~cmp-16516958813~adg-194460031872~ad-799066511430_kwd-2458986367080~dev-c~ext-~prd-~mca-~nt-search&amp;cid=wwa-us-kwgo-mac-core-macbookneo-macbookneo_hero_announce_030426-Mac-Core-Exact-MacBookNeo-Exact-macbook+neo\">MacBook Neo<\/a>, which they agreed is a perfect fit for students and really anyone in need of a simple computer. They also talked about the idea of Milwaukee serving as a test city for new technology going forward.<\/p>\n<p>Next, they shared their ideas for AI regulation on social media in an ideal world, as the technology becomes more prevalent in online spaces. Martin also gave some tech advice for modern dating\u2014swapping YouTube video histories with potential partners\u2014and they broke down what went wrong with the McDonald\u2019s CEO\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/mcdonalds-ceo-chris-kempczinski-big-arch-burger-review-social-media-2026-3\">Big Arch Burger video<\/a> and why authenticity matters so much for leaders online.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wtmj.com\/the-upswing\/\">The Upswing<\/a> is presented by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.horiconbank.com\/\">Horicon Bank<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <!-- Tags visible --> <\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\"> <\/a><\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\/acceptable.html\"> <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; new opportunities for Milwaukee families, <span class=\"match\">tech<\/span> users and future-focused leaders &#8230; as a test city for new <span class=\"match\">technology<\/span> going forward.
